Rio Ferdinand questions Bukayo Saka's 'cheeky' decision to try a Panenka after Arsenal star had penalty saved by Thibaut Courtois

Bukayo Saka was criticised by Rio Ferdinand after an attempted Panenka penalty went wrong for him in Arsenal's quarter-final second leg clash with Real Madrid.

The Arsenal maestro has been their go-to star for a number of seasons now, and despite a long-term injury lay-off this term has been their key performer in the Champions League.

This season he has four goals and two assists from six outings in the competition, and he won both free-kicks scored by Declan Rice in the first leg at the Emirates.
